Daily driver
How many of you are using the vette as daily driver , going to work, grocery etc and how does it fulfill the needs?
Just started looking at the stingray and wondering if I can replace my M3 with the vette as a daily driver, it won't be a garage queen. |
Hey! I'm offended! My snowflake C7 self identifies as a Garage-"King". Everything in that damned garage is there to support that car. (sorry, can't help :D )
|
I daily mine... the hatch configuration means it holds plenty of cargo. In fact its the wife's preferred Costco trip vehicle as it holds nearly twice what her Infiniti Q60 can. Only real downsides would be gas mileage and ease of parking.

All my 'vettes have been daily drivers. Comfy, fun to drive, look getter...
(have a truck for serious hauling) |

I DD mine no complaints whatsoever, well besides watching out for road imperfections, but that's not the cars fault
|
There are three C7 owners at work. Two drive to work every day. Then there is me.

Great to know that, why is it difficult to park , due to visibility issues or it's too wide? I guess the mirrors dont have power folding feature

Been daily driving my C5 and now C7 for 20 years. No complaints other than you're more inclined to get a door scratch (can often be buffed off) and some parking spots are way too thin for my GS. On the other hand, I have a big smile every day I drive it.

During Spring, Summer and early Fall-mine is a DD.
|
I use my Z06 as my DD from April 1st through Thanksgiving. It’s great...love it. The only thing I’m limited by is number of passengers. |

The 'vert is a DD and yes, I do curbside grocery shopping in it.
|
I used my C5 as my daily driver for over four years; no issues. I don't see why the C7 would be any different. :yesnod:
|
No way would my C7 ever serve as "daily driver" -- especially in the winter months. My Honda Accord handles that.
Now, if I lived in Florida, things might be different. To each his own. |
Use it as my daily, very comfy and quiet. There is quite a bit of comfortable trunk space to fit groceries, and children, lol jk, don't have any.
|
My C7 is not a daily driver, especially in the winter. In fact, I doubt it will be a DD in the summer, but I do plan to drive it a lot more than my last Vette.
|
I drive the snot out of mine on a daily basis... :D
If it is clean I generally drive the truck when raining, but that's a laziness thing. :thumbs: |
Daily Driver of Corvettes for 29 years.... approaching 800,000 miles....
